We drew a really tough conference schedule this year. Of 13 potential conference opponents, we played the top four and four of the other nine. Contrast that with the Dallas Ponies semi-pro team that played the bottom four and only four of the top nine.
Plus, our conference schedule gets easier in 2024 with Charlotte (2-6), FAU (3-5), and East Carolina (1-7); and dropping Memphis (6-2) and Tulane (8-0). Of course, this could be subject to change with SMU departing AAC and Army coming in.
I hear a lot of football guys saying the 3-man defensive line cannot work. I tend to agree.
Tech in Lubbock on September 14 and Wyoming in Denton on September 21 will tell us a lot about the rest of 2024.
